WEBVTT DEGREES WHEN IT ENDS. ALL IN YOUR 11 INSTA-WEATHER PLUS FORECAST. ALL RIGHT MIRI WELL, WE KNOW CITY SCHOOLS OPEN UP MONDAY AND ANOTHER OPENING IN BALTIMORE, A GRAND HOPING. FRANK MURPHY FROM THE CITY IS HERE WITH ME THONG TALK ABOUT THOUSAND OPENING OF THE HORSESHOE CASINO OPENING COULD MAKE A MESSY SOUP DOWN THERE. SO WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING? I THINK WE HAVE THE ACTUAL OPENING ON TUESDAY, CORRECT? BUT MONDAY A LOT OF EMPLOYEES WILL BE GOING. SO WHAT'S YOUR ADVICE STARTING MONDAY? THE RAVENS ARE PLAYING IN THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS AND WE HAVE THE STAR-SPANGLED CELEBRATION IN EARLY SEMENT AND THE CASINO OPENS TUESDAY. PRETTY EXCITING TIMES FOR BALTIMORE. WE WANT TO ADVISE PEOPLE THAT THERE WILL BE HIGH TRAFFIC ON THE ROADS. THE OPENING TIMES FOR THE CASINO ON TUESDAY, WE EXPECT THAT DAY THE CASINO GARAGE WILL FILL, SO WE'VE ARRANGED FOR A NEW CHARMS CIRCULATING ROUTE TO OPERATE BETWEEN THE CASINO AND DOWNTOWN SO YOU CAN PARK THERE. IT WILL TAKE YOU DOWN TO THE CASINO. IT WILL TAKE YOU DOWN THROUGH LABOR DAY AND WE WANT TO REMIND PEOPLE DO NOT PARK IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS. BUT COME ON DOWN, PARK DOWNTOWN. CATCH THE FREE SHUTTLE. SO TIME-WISE THE CASINO ACTUALLY OPENS AT 9:00 P.M. TUESDAY NIGHT? YES. DURING WHICH TIME THERE WILL BE FOLKS AT THE ORIOLES PARK FOR THE ORIOLES GAME. THIS IS FUN FOR YOU FIGURING OUT ALL THIS STUFF, RIGHT? YES. AND THE CHARMS PARKING IS FREE. I'M SURE THE FOLKS THERE WANT TO REMIND PEOPLE WHEN YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE NEARBY NEIGHBORHOODS WILL THERE BE SIGNS POSTED REMINDING PEOPLE NOT TO PARK THERE? YES. THERE ARE SIGNS UNLESS TOUGH RESIDENTIAL PARKING PERMIT. SOME OF THE PEOPLE COMING TO THE CASINO MAY NOT BE AS FAMILIAR AS ORIOLES AND RAVENS FANS ARE ABOUT THOSE PROGRAMS. HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT ALL THIS CONVERGING THIS WEEK? EVERYONE'S GOT BACK TO SCHOOL AND YOU'VE GOT BACK TO TRAFFIC. YES. WE HAVE THE GRAND PRIX AND NOW HORSESHOE. SO YOU HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS.
